User talk:Hernan254

Welcome!
Hello, Hernan254, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Shalor and I work with Wiki Education; I help support students who are editing as part of a class assignment.

I hope you enjoy editing here. If you haven't already done so, please check out the student training library, which introduces you to editing and Wikipedia's core principles. You may also want to check out the Teahouse, a community of Wikipedia editors dedicated to helping new users. Below are some resources to help you get started editing. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me on my talk page. Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 21:38, 5 February 2020 (UTC)

Virtual reality Suggestion
Hello Hernan254 and welcome to Wikipedia! I undid your recent edits to Virtual reality, because they were unencyclopedic. Wikipedia is not an instruction manual or a how-to guide. Mathglot (talk) 17:14, 23 February 2020 (UTC)


 * Also @Hernan254, while good-faith contributions are always appreciated, content in an encyclopedia should not be written in 2nd person language. If you'd like to discuss this reverted change in more detail, please do not re-insert it but start a thread at the article's talkpage Talk:Virtual reality (see also WP:BRD for a recommended approach to discuss disputed edits and to search for a consensus). Thank you for your consideration. GermanJoe (talk) 21:10, 23 February 2020 (UTC)

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Virtual reality. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been or will be reverted. Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive. Continued disruptive editing may result in loss of editing privileges. Thank you. GermanJoe (talk) 17:39, 24 February 2020 (UTC)
 * If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, please discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page, and seek consensus with them. Alternatively, you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant noticeboards.
 * If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, please seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

Your recent editing history shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See the bold, revert, discuss cycle for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing&mdash;especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring&mdash;even if you don't violate the three-revert rule&mdash;should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

Virtual reality
It looks like your edits have been reverted several times to the virtual reality page and you've been given several warnings to stop. You must take these warnings seriously, as edit warring can absolutely lead to you getting blocked from editing. Keep in mind that you will not be graded on what "sticks" but rather the effort you've put into your work.

I do have some notes on your work:


 * Avoid writing in a casual tone. Don't use words like "you", "we" or "our". Wikipedia uses a formal third person style, so writing casually or using "you" type wording doesn't fit the writing style guidelines.


 * The others are correct in that Wikipedia is not meant to be a "how to" type of guide. So rather than writing "you should do X to avoid Y", it would be better to write it like "Improperly fitting headsets may cause X, Y, and Z."


 * With adding material, make sure that you're not restating content that has already been written in the article or specific section. The content you've added looks to already be in the health and safety section, so there's no need to re-state the claims. The only aspect that doesn't look to really be in the section is the impact of VR on mental (psychological) health, but that was only slightly touched upon in your additions.

Since this does deal with medical/body/self content (ie, health) I would like you to take this training module on the style and sourcing for medical/body/self topics. Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 16:13, 25 February 2020 (UTC)
